Qur’an Science and IMAM AHMAD RAZA

Prof. Hakim Ali Nakhsbandi (1944 A.D.){Professor of Mathematics in Islamia College Lahore, India}

Once asked to Imam Ahmad Raza about the Theory of Revolving Earth around the Sun in 1919 A.D.

Prof. Hakim Ali in the end offer to Imam Ahmad Raza that he should accept and favor the Scientific theory about the revolving earth and wrote him that

“ O Dear! come to my side and you will find both the science and scientist of the world have become Muslim”


Reply of Imam Ahmad Raza to Prof. Hakim Ali

It is baseless to believe that science can become compactable with the Qur’an and Sunnah, by altering the meanings of the text and justifying its far-flung meaning in accordance with the science.In this way it seems that Islam has molded itself into science not the science.

IMAM AHMAD RAZA A COMPLETE SCIENTIST

Reply of Imam Ahmad Raza to Prof. Hakim Ali

It is only possible if science is Islamized to resolve all the related problems which contrast with the Islam {Qur’an and Sunnah}.

Scientific experiments and their authenticity to prove the reality of Islam should be condemned.

Islam should be proven and justify by Islam itself that is Qur’an and Sunnah.

اور زمين ميں ہم نے لنگر ڈالے کہ انهيں لے کر نہ کانپے اور ہم نے اس ميں کشادہ راہيں رکهيں کہ ک ہيں وہ راہ پائيں

Ahmed Raza Khan:And We have placed mountains as anchors in the earth so that it may not shake with them; and We kept wide roads in it, so that they may find guidance.

Yusuf Ali:

And We have set on the earth mountains standing firm, lest it should shake with them, and We have made therein broad highways (between mountains) for them to pass through: that they may receive Guidance.

Coral/ Marjan(Monga) and TayyumumCorals are skeletal remains of marine organisms from the class Anthozoa and exist as small sea anemone-like polyps, typically in colonies of many identical individuals.

The group includes the important reef builders that are found in tropical oceans, which secrete calcium carbonate to form a hard skeleton.



Fatwa about Tayyumum:Any thing belong to original material of

earth allow tayyumum with it.It should not contain material other than

material of earth, other wise tayyumum is not allowed by Fuqaha.

(FatawaRazavia Vol. I Page 661)


Tayyumum By Coral / Marjan (Monga)

Imam Ahmad Raza has discussed about the original material of Earth and conclude that there are 181 kinds of stone or soil which allows tayyumum according to fiqah-e- hanafi.

Out of 181 kinds, Imam Ahmad Raza has contributed himself 107 types of material.

Imam Ahmad Raza has also listed 130 kinds of earth material by which the tayyumum is not allowed by hanafi fuqaha.

Out of these 130 prohibited material for tayyumum Imam Ahmad Raza himself has added 72 kinds.

(Fatawa Razavia Vol. I)




Coral / Marjan (Monga)

Ahmed Raza Khan: Pearls and coral-stone come forth from them.

Ahmed Raza Khan: They are like rubies and coral-stone

There are two similarities. 1) one similarity is with Plant. 2) other similarity is with stone {nonmetallic ore (Calcite)}.

Ahmed Raza Khan: So O men and jinns! Which favour of your Lord will you deny?

گويا وہ لعل اور ياقوت اور مونگا ہيں

ان ميں سے موتی اور مونگا نکلتا ہے

تم دونوں اپنے رب کی کون سی نعمت کو جهٹالؤ گے ! تو اے جن و انس

Imam Ahmad Raza quotes previous references:

The Coral is in between Plant and Stone.It looks like stone because it is solid as any stone and it seems to be like plant found at surface of sea bed as other plants. (Ibne Jauzee)

Coral is stone like other stones which grows as plant in the oceans. ( Ramley)



Conclusion of Imam Ahmad Raza:

1) Geologists confirmed it to be stone and declared it Tree like stone not stone like Tree.

2) Coral is a stony body which looks like root and branch of any Plant.

3) Colonial Coral grows at depth of sea bed.

4) Similarity as plant growth does not exclude coral from stone.Therefore tayyumum is allowed by solid coral.



Imam Ahmad Raza has discussed the basic mechanism of Telecommunication System in his book

“ Al Kashf-e- Shafia Hukme Phono Gharafia”(1909)

Sound TheoryWave TheoryAuditory TheoryDamped Harmonic TheoryLaw of Collision


Pure Physics (Sound Waves)

In this book he has discussed:

What is sound?

How it is produced?

How it is heard?

After its generation, whether it remains or disappears.

Whether it exists outside or originates with in the ear?

What is its relation to soniferous?

Whether it is intrinsic or extrinsic?



Razavi’s concept for hearing of sound:

For propagation of sound, medium and wave motion are necessary.If there is no medium there will be no wave motion and the sound could not be heard.

Experiment:

If any room is made up of Glass and there is no hole at all (air Tight). The sound produced inside by a person will not be listened out side ,even the person is standing just beside the glass.

Idara Tahqeeqat-e- Imam Ahmad Raza International PakistanIdara Tahqeeqat-e- Imam Ahmad Raza International Pakistan


Imam Ahmad Raza’s cocept about the Amplitude of the sound wave in air and water medium.

Experiment:

If two persons are inside water with some distance and one of them hits two stone with each other , the sound that will produce will not be listen to other person as it will be listen on ground at same distance.

This is due that loudness of sound is much more in air medium as compared to water medium



Imam Ahmad Raza has given following arguments for propagation of sound and its listening by ear in1909Both Air and Water medium transport energy/sound wave by forming their wave forms.

In cemented and raw buildings sound will propagate through pores.

In glass there will be no propagation of sound waves because of no pores and wave motion.

For propagation of waves , Vibrating organ, Material medium, Wave motion and Ear is necessary.



Imam Ahmad Raza has given his views about sound waves that sound and its conditions can be preserved:

All words in form of sound waves are saved and they are creature as other and even after disappearance of sound these sound words recitetasbeehat (Names of Allah) and make Astaghfarfor those who produces good words through his mouth.

The words coming out through any mouth remains in air till the last day and will recite continuously for its producer/generater



Revolving Sun and Static Earth According to Imam Ahmad Raza

the Islamic concept/theory (based on Qua’an and Hadees) explains that Earth is static.


Ahmed Raza Khan:He brings the night in a part of the day and He brings the day in a part of the night; and He has subjected the sun and moon; each one runs to its fixed term; such is Allah, your Lord - only His is the kingship; and those whom you worship instead of Him do not own even the husk of a date-seed.

QUR'AN CHAPTER 35:FATIR (THE ANGELS, ORIGNATOR) Verse 13

رات التا ہے دن کے حصہ ميں اور دن التا ہے رات کے حصہ ميں اور اس نے کام ميں لگائے سورج اور چاند ہر ايک ايک مقرر ميعاد تک چلتا ہے يہ ہے اهللا تمہارا رب اسی کی بادشاہی ہے، اور اس کے سوا جنہيں تم پوجتے ہو دانہ ُخرما کے چهلکے تک کے مالک نہيں

• Ahmed Raza Khan: Indeed Allah restrains the heavens and the earth from convulsing; and were they to convulse, who could stop them except Allah? Indeed He is Most Forbearing, Oft Forgiving.


QUR'AN CHAPTER 35:FATIR (THE ANGELS,

ORIGNATOR) Verse 41

گر وہ بيشک اهللا روکے ہوئے ہے آسمانوں اور زمين کو کہ جنبش نہ کريں اور ا ےہٹ جائيں تو انہيں کون روکے اهللا کے سوا، بيشک وہ علم بخشنے واال ہ

Revolving Sun and Static Earth

Imam Ahmad Raza has written a book entitled“Fauze Mubeen Der Hatkate Radde Zameen” (1919/1339)

Proved by 105 scientific arguments that Earth is StaticCriticized ideas of Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton and Albert Einstein

Imam Ahmad Raza has discussed various scientific spheres to prove Earth to be Static through knowledge ofPhysics, Chemistry, Astrology, Astronomy, Geology,Oceanography, Mathematics, Logarithm, Trigonometry,Algebra etc



This book covers the topics like;

Planetary motion in the orbits,Mechanics of attractive& repulsive forces, Centripetal & Centrifugal Forces, Projectile motion, Relative velocity, Circular speed, Friction coefficient,buoyant force, theory of Tides, Distance from the Sun etc. along with Mathematical calculations & geometrical diagrams



Medical Sciences

Imam Ahmad Raza has written a book on Blood Circulatory System entitled

“Maqamul Hadeed Ala Khade Mantaqil Jadeed”(1886/1303)

In this booklet Imam Raza has discussed

Minicircuit of blood circulationFucntional parts of circultionArteries, arterioles, capillariesVenues, Veinsmicrocirculation


• This book also comprises of the topic about Medical Embryology:

Transport , Fertilization & implantation of developing ovum at the endometrium of the uterus.Zygote FormationIntracellular division-mitosisManifestation of providence during pregnancy and nursingIntrauterine nutrition of the embryoIntrauterine development of human body, its various stages and organ formation

Ultra Sound Theory By Imam Ahmad Raza

A question was raised by Christian Priest that Muslim’s Holy book Al-Qur’an does not tell whether it is male or female child in the womb, however it can be known by some instrument.

• A book on this medical science (Embryology) was written by Imam Ahmad Raza entitled

• “As-Samsam Ala Mushakkikin Fi Aayate Uloomil Arham”(1896/1315)

Imam Ahmad Raza has replied to Priest using nearly Sixty branches of knowledge related to medical and other sciences , likeEmbryology, Physiognomy, Anatomy, Optics, Physical Chemistry, Anthropology, Reflection and Refraction of Light ect.He wrote this treaties in one sitting only


• Imam Ahmad Raz has explained the theory of Ultra Sound on the basis of theory of Optics, Reflection and Refraction of light.

• It is possible that some methods are inspired by Allah Almighty by which the Fetus is observed.

• For example,

• After conveying light by opening and spacing out the five covers, according to the need with the help of some coercive tools, some lenses are set on such places that they may reflect rays and bring them to the nearest mirror; or mutually different lenses i.e. lenses of different thickness are set in such places that they may take optical rays to the Fetus by refracting them according to method of optics already mentioned.

Ultra Sound Theory By Imam Ahmad Raza


Lunar and Solar Tides { Maddu Jazer}• The word "tides" is a generic term used to define

the alternating rise and fall in sea level with respect to the land, produced by the gravitational attraction of the moon and the sun.

• To a much smaller extent, tides also occur in large lakes, the atmosphere, and within the solid crust of the earth, acted upon by these same gravitational forces of the moon and sun.


• There are two bulges because of the differential gravitational forces.

• The liquid at point A is closer to the Moon and experiences a larger gravitational force than the Earth at point B or the ocean at point C.

• Because it experiences a larger attraction, it is pulled away from the Earth, toward the Moon, thus producing the bulge on the right side.

• Loosely, we may think of the bulge on the left side as arising because the Earth is pulled away from the water on that side because the gravitational force exerted by the Moon at point B is larger than that exerted at point C.

• Then, as our idealized Earth rotates under these bulges, a given point on the surface will experience two high and two low tides for each rotation of the planet


Lunar and Solar Tides { Maddu Jazer}

• Imam Ahmad Raz has explained in detail about the cocept of Tides in his book “Fauze Mubeen “ (Page 49-58)

• He has discussed following matters before giving new concept of Tides and refused the concept given by Scientist of his Time.

Effect of tides is found only on upper surface of water

He has calculated the distance of moon & Sun with reference to Earth

He has also calculated relative density and volume of Sun and Moon

Where the volcanic Eruption took places in the Oceans

Why there is no bulging in water other than three giant Oceans

Bulging is not at all controlled by any gravitational force

The oceans are set flamed or fired



Gravitational Law by Newton was rejected byImam Ahmad Raza

apple has fallen down due to gravity ,how does it relates to gravity of sun.

This is not necessary that what is true for Earth it is also true for sun.

How does falling of Apple confirm attraction?

Imam Ahmad Raza reject the theory of attraction and repulsion.


Lunar and Solar Tides { Maddu Jazer}Imam Ahmad Raza raised some questions

like:When moon is on one side; How the bulge produces on other sideIf centrifugal force is cause than why it is not controlling all around itIf centrifugal force is acting than why the bulge to ward side of moon is not more and much more when moon and sun both are on one side. Mass of the Earth is greater or moon or Sun Sun is very far from moon but is very huge in mass than why sun could not attract water more.


Concept of Imam Ahmad Raza about Bulging and Tides.

There is no role of gravity in pulling the water of Earth surface.The Earth is Static and there is no gravity system.There are Oceanic Trenches through which the Molten material is erupting and setting firebeneath the water surface of oceans.The heat of this fire (LAVA) is transferred up to the upper surface of water which produces bulging in the water in form of Tides called Lunar or Solar tides.


Idara Tahqeeqat-e- Imam Ahmad Raza International PakistanIdara Tahqeeqat-e- Imam Ahmad Raza International Pakistan

The mechanism is simple as water is boiled in any pot under some fire, the water than start bulging in the presence of heat.

In the same way the lava transfers heat to above water so that the water above bulges, this is what called to be High Tide {MUDD}and when the heat dies (slow down) the bulging goes down this is what called Low Tide (JAZZER}.
